We continue our investigation into shapes and today we had a really tricky problem. We were asked to find which shapes would fit into a triangle. This took lots of determination, hardwork, and even required us to rethink our ideas several times. We saw firsthand how important it was to have a growth mindset for a problem like this.

| One possible solution to this problem... |
We will continue to do a variety of open ended math problems like this throughout the year as it will help us see math in new ways. It will also help us understand that there isn't always one right answer and that we can find different solutions to the same problem.
Reminders:
No School Friday for students
